Press Release Summary = Hexis have introduced a new high tack vinyl film that will stick to hard to adhere to substrates such as trashcans, garbage bins or other non-polar plastics.
Press Release Body = The 2 new inkjet printable products are the VCR3000WG1, a 100μm gloss white intermediate PVC with a special high tack clear permanent solvent-based adhesive on a 145g/mē PE-coated liner with an outdoor durability of up to 4 years and the VCR200WG1, a 70μm gloss white high performance PVC with a special high tack clear permanent solvent-based adhesive also on a 145g/mē PE-coated liner and with an outdoor durability of up to 8 years.

Things like trash bins, canoes, motorcycle fairings can all now have graphics put onto them.
Data sheets and samples are available directly from Hexis or from local distributors.
